How to get started with our serial seven segment display module and make a cool scrolling display. This 8 Digit Seven Segment Display Module takes advantage of the Maxim MAX7219 driver IC to allow you to driver its 8 seven segment LED’s using just 3 digital pins. The display removes all the awkward things…
One of the things the Arduino environment does very well is to provide a quick and easy path into the world of microcontrollers and embedded control. One way it achieves this is to try and hide away the complicated low-level parts of programming a microcontroller. When writing code for an Arduino you generally don’t need…
One of the most common uses for microcontrollers is for interfacing to various sensors to monitor the world around you. With an Arduino board you can read the value from a temperature sensor and output it to a computer in a matter of minutes. But what if your Arduino and sensor needs to be remotely…
Creating your own libraries can be time-consuming. We’ve created a library for various keypads and thought we’d share this, along with an example sketch to prove it works 😉 You will need: Matrix Keypad (for this example we’ll use a 4 x 4) 8 x Male to Male Cables Your Uno In order for…
